## Questions

### Is this invoice legally valid?

It shows what most invoices need: your details, a number, dates, items, tax and the total. Rules differ by country, for example VAT or GST registration numbers and required wording. The tool does not check those, so confirm them for your country.

### Where is my invoice stored?

Only on your device, in this tab. The PDF is built in your browser and nothing is sent to a server. Use Save invoice file to keep the form as a small file, and Open invoice file to load it again.

### How does a discount affect the tax?

The discount comes off each line in proportion before tax, so the tax is worked out on the discounted amounts. For example, 10% off 300 at 20% tax leaves 270 taxed, which gives a tax of 54.

### Why does some invoice text show as a picture?

The standard PDF fonts cover Latin letters and common symbols only. If the invoice holds other characters, such as ₹, ₩ or Cyrillic, each page is drawn as an image so every character shows. The text of those pages cannot be selected.
